Daytime VHF amplitude scintillations recorded at an Indian low-latitude station,Waltair (17.7°N, 83.3°E) during 1997–2003

In this research, it is presented the daytime amplitude scintillations recorded at VHF frequency (244 MHz) at an Indian low-latitude station, Waltair (17.7°N, 83.3°E) during seven continuous years (1997–2003). Contrary to the nighttime scintillation seasonal trends, the occurrence of daytime scintillations maximizes during summer followed by winter and the equinox seasons. The fade depths, scintillation indices and the patch durations of daytime scintillations are meager when compared with their nighttime counterparts. A co-located digital high frequency (HF) ionosonde radar confirms the presence of sporadic (Es) layers when daytime scintillations are observed. The presence of daytime scintillations is evident when the critical frequency of the Es-layer (foEs) is ≥4 MHz and Es-layers are characterized by a highly diffuse range spread Es echoes as can be seen on ionograms. It is surmised that the gradient drift instability (GDI) seems to be the possible mechanism for the generation of these daytime scintillations. It is quite likely that the spread Es-F-layer coupling is done through polarization electric fields (Ep) that develop inside the destabilized patches of sporadic E layers, which are mapped up to the F region along the field lines as to initiate the daytime scintillations through the GDI mechanism. Further, the presence of additional stratification of ionosphere F-layer, popularly known as the F3-layer, is observed on ionograms once the Es-layers and daytime scintillations are ceased.     

Two-stream instability generation in the lunar ionosphere

The Two-stream Instability (TSI) generation is studied analytically in the lunar ionosphere. The TSI is a tiny perturbation in the electron plasma density, due to which an electric field grows with time and this growth is facilitated by the electron plasma in the background. In lunar ionosphere, the TSI comes into existence when the solar wind interacts unhindered with the tenuous lunar electron plasma in the surface bound exosphere. In this study, the conditions which allow the TSI to form and the subsequent instability growth with time i.e. the growth factor, is estimated. Initially, the threshold condition for the TSI to take place is determined. Thereafter, the solar wind and lunar plasma parameter contribution to trigger TSI is investigated along with the effect of these parameters in the evolution of TSI. The plasma TSI evolution with the passage of time is also depicted in phase space diagram with Particle-In-Cell simulations.     

同轴离心式喷嘴热声不稳定性递归分析

为获得同轴离心式喷嘴燃烧动力学特性，开展了喷注单元稳定性试验研究。试验中燃料流量不变，随氧化剂流量增加，热声系统依次经历了燃烧噪声状态、阵发状态和准周期振荡状态。采用递归方法对实验结果进行分析。首先，利用交互信息法和虚假最邻近法分别求解最优延迟时间和嵌入维数，获得了典型工况下的相空间轨迹图。其次，递归图分析表明系统出现了第II类阵发现象，意味着系统发生了亚临界Hopf分叉，与实验结果一致。最后，递归量化分析表明，确定率可以将阵发状态和准周期振荡状态与燃烧噪声状态区分出来，并可以对热声振荡进行预报。     

Flow mechanism between purge flow and mainstream in different turbine rim seal configurations

The rim seal is used to prevent mainstream ingestion to the gap between the vane of a turbine and its blade. In this article, the dolphin lip with a hook configuration and a large seal cavity with hook structures are designed based on the high-pressure turbine datum single shark lip rim seal configuration. The sealing effect and parameters of the flow field are measured by an experiment method and a numerical simulation is used to explain the mechanism. For three configurations, the effect of the leakage slot vortex on the efficiency of the seal and the influence of leakage vortex, generated by the interaction between purge flow and mainstream flow, are discussed in depth. The result shows that the reverse vortex formed by the dolphin lip rim seal with hook structure will increase the sealing efficiency. The seal configuration with a large cavity improves sealing efficiency to a greater extent than the datum structure. At different purge flow rates and with unequal seal structures, the purge flow produces three types of leakage vortices in the passage. Besides, the seal configuration with dolphin lip produces a Kelvin-Helmholtz instability at the interface of the purge and the mainstream flows at a low purge flow rate to induce new leakage vortex branches in the passage of the blade.     

非预混条件下的旋转爆轰燃烧室双波头演化过程数值模拟

针对旋转爆轰燃烧室双波头演化过程中流场结构变化的问题,对非预混条件下的旋转爆轰燃烧室从起爆到形成稳定的双波头过程进行了数值模拟研究。研究结果表明,从起爆到形成稳定爆轰过程,燃烧室主要经历了起爆、爆轰波对撞和稳定爆轰三个阶段；在爆轰波对撞阶段,首次对撞是两个爆轰波间的对撞,由于对撞点处缺少新鲜混合气,从而在对撞结束后衰减为两个压力波。第二次对撞是两个压力波间的对撞,因为在第二次对撞点附近存在新鲜混合气来支撑爆轰波的持续传播,故对撞结束后产生了一个爆轰波和一个较弱的压力波；第二次对撞发生后,燃烧室内的压力波反射叠加并形成局部高压区,此高压区压缩气体使气体温度升高,高温气体引燃混合气后,最终发展成为第二个爆轰波；稳定阶段,两个爆轰波均能稳定自持传播,爆轰波峰面压力可达1.45MPa,波后温度为2500K,爆轰波速度稳定在1738m/s,产生的推力与比冲分别为79.76N和2312.15s；斜激波的存在使燃烧室出口平面流场产生了较大波动。

对不同工况下CH4/air旋流火焰的放热率在时间上的热声振荡现象和空间的三维形态转变两方面进行了研究。在燃烧形态转变方面，由于旋流火焰的复杂流场分布特性，采用基于化学自发光的三维计算层析技术(3D-CTC)，测量了雷诺数从5 000到20 000的三个工况下旋流燃烧的CH*发光三维火焰结构。以此表征放热率的三维分布，实现对旋流火焰放热空间形态的测量。该诊断方法通过对旋流火焰发光在8个视角下的二维成像，结合层析重建算法得到其三维CH*分布信息。为验证重建保真度，将重建后结果二维可视化与高速摄影下的二维时均结果进行对比，结果表明重建误差在5%以内。研究中，分析了不同雷诺数下放热率的空间变化规律，结果显示所有实验工况下放热率的垂直于喷嘴方向的变化程度比沿喷嘴轴向的要剧烈；而随着雷诺数增加，最大的放热区表现出了明显的向后推进趋势。在旋流燃烧的热声振荡方面，利用CH*的二维高速摄影，对旋流燃烧的放热率不稳定性进行研究，发现放热率的振荡频率随着雷诺数的增大逐渐增加。      

新概念机翼尾流特性实验

大型飞机常采用开启襟翼以增大机翼升力系数,实现较大迎角的起飞和降落,而机翼在大迎角状态下,翼尖会产生能量集中且自由消散时间长的飞机尾涡,严重影响后续起降飞机的安全。基于Rayleigh-Ludwieg不稳定性,提出一种新概念飞机襟翼布局,通过水槽实验发现:新概念布局的襟翼对翼尖涡的消散具有明显的促进作用,不同参数组合下襟翼涡对翼尖涡的运动特性和能量变化的影响均有不同。实验结果也为飞机尾流控制的研究提供了参考,在满足飞行力学设计的基础上,合理运用增升装置构建四涡系统可以有效促进飞机尾流的消散,提高机场飞机起降效率。     

内孔结构对旋转空化发生器水力特性的影响

空化普遍存在于工业生产、舰船推进、航空航天等领域.使用高速相机对闭式循环试验台的旋转空化发生器内部流动进行试验观测，然后基于RNG k ε湍流模型和Zwart Gerber Belamri空化模型开展了旋转空化发生器流场的数值模拟.结果表明数值模拟结果与试验观测数据吻合较好，验证了本文数值模拟方法的准确性和可靠性.受离心力作用，转子孔内的压力从内径到外径逐渐增大.内孔底部由于轴向旋涡的作用，产生较大旋涡并耗散能量.内孔顶部流体与腔体区主流相互作用，在内孔顶侧产生碰撞并形成较小漩涡.不同内孔结构对旋转空化发生器的空化效果具有重要影响，在相同工况下椭圆形内孔的空化率小于圆锥形和圆柱形，说明型线光滑的内孔结构局部损失小，产生的空化较弱.不同内孔结构下，旋转空化发生器内部压力脉动的主频为转频fi或24fi(对应圆周方向开孔排数)，压力脉动最大幅值出现在进口管侧和出口管侧，主要原因是受动静干涉作用影响.
